Hi!
I have 3 CD drives, but aptitude and apt-get only work with one of them
(let us acall it cdrom0 ) .
If a certain CD is inserted in it (in cdrom0) and apt requires a CD, I
can not put the CD into the other (empty) units (cdrom1 or cdrom2), but
must remove the CD from the unit cdrom0 and replace the CD with the
requested one.
Can it be made to checkk all units ?
